When I pulled away Percy looked like his brain melted, and fallen through his ears.

"You should go," I glanced outside, the sky was starting to tint orange and red, "People will wake up soon. And seeing you come out of my cabin in the morning will set off a few alarms,"

Percy kissed me, "Sure thing, good nigh-morning Wise Girl. I'll see you at breakfast,"

He opened the door, I leaned forward "Wait, do we tell people?"

Percy gave an evil smirk, "Nah, let them figure it out. We could have fun with this. See you at breakfast," He winked and slipped out of the room. I shook my head lightly smiling.


I was able to doze off lightly before the bell woke me up. I almost skipped to breakfast-and I never skip. For the first time I was the first there, besides The Lady-she doesn't count though.

She looked at me surprisingly, "Ms. Chase, I'd never expect you to be the first up, trouble sleeping?"

Keeping my cover and I dropped my shoulders, "Yeah, I wouldn't remember my dreams, but wake up feeling scared."

"Ah, you've been having night terrors, My youngest daughter used to get those when she was younger. If they keep coming tell me," I nodded somberly, she looked at me sympathetically, "A nice warm breakfast should cheer you up,"

I sat down at my seat, or just a seat but it's the one I've been sitting for the week and a half. I just started piling bacon on my plate when Piper and Leo strolled in, laughing at something,

"Whoa, Blondie's awake" Leo whistled sitting down. Piper smacked his arm,

I tossed a tater tot at his face, "Very funny," The lady clicked her tongue at me flinging my tater tot. Hazel entered deep in conversation with Frank and Jason, both listening intently. Percy came in shortly after, giving me a wink when he caught my eyes,

The lady cleared her throat signaling it was time to pay attention to her, "Today we'll talk about different forms of handling pain. Ms. Levesque?"

Hazel stopped mid bite, "Uh, instead of isolating myself, I could talk about it. Or draw."

"Do you like animals?"

"Yeah, mostly horses" Hazel's confusion about the question was all over her face,

The lady wrote something down, "If you're not all the way comfortable talking to people, it could help talking to animals. It's good practice of letting yourself speak your problems and let them reach your ears. Mr. Valdez?"

"I don't know." He shrugged, "I like to build stuff,"

She smiled, "See you just found one, Ms. Chase?"

"Maybe, I could talk about my feelings, and address them. And I have this feeling that I've done a lot more of that," My eyes wandered over to Percy. He smirked knowingly.

The Lady nodded, "Very good. This camp is meant for progress like that to take place. Mr. Grace?"

"Again, I have nothing to cope with, nothing to talk about." Jason insisted,

"Tsk. Tsk. Mr. Grace I thought we talked about this, meet me later after breakfast. Ms. Mclean?"

"As much as I hate it, deep down, I kinda like fashion and design." She mumbled almost defeated

All eyes turned to Frank before the Lady asked him to speak, "As most of the 7 know, I love animals. I used to help small ones that lived in the woods by my Grandmother's house,"

The Lady cheerfully wrote something down, "Uh, Mr. Jackson? Would you like to share?"

Percy gave a look that said 'What the hell', "Instead of pushing my feelings down and creating rage, I could accept them and see what happens from then, kinda like go-with-the-flow before I'd try to control everything." He shrugged, "I don't know though,"

"Very good Mr. Jackson!" Again came the childish praise, "Our activity today will be going around camp an find an object for each of you that would help you quote," We all nodded, and waited till she dismissed us.


Percy met me on the deck, he had a habit of disappearing in crowds, and reappearing everywhere you won't look.

He intertwined our fingers, "I've already found my object," he whispered in my ear, making me blush,

"Layer 3 1/2 is cheesy hopeless romantic, that I'm certain of," I pulled him away, Percy had a lopsided grin on his face. I was still blushing, I had left out hands together. His hand was warm and large, he had callouses on his fingers. I only stopped yanking him till we were at my cabin,

I pecked his lips, "Stay here," I murmured before slipping inside searching for my favorite book: _ (AN: You can decide what her favorite book is) I stepped back out to see Percy leaning against the door frame,

He glanced at the object in my hands, and playfully tugged at my hair, "You're such a Wise Girl,"

"No more than you're a Seaweed Brain," I bumped him

He bopped his finger on my nose, "Touche Blondie, Touche"

"So, what's your object," I asked, we started walking down the dirt path, away from the others,

Percy rolled his eyes like it's obvious, "Duh, you. I thought we cleared this. Gee, you're supposed to be the smart one,"

"Very funny. Seriously though," I started swinging our hands between us,

He shrugged, "I don't know, I'll know when I find it," He thought for a moment, "Okay, 21 questions, ready, go!"

"Uh, favorite movie series of all time,"

"It's like impossible to answer that," He whined,

I shook my head, "No it's not. Man up and decide,"

"For me to answer that, is like, you being forced to decide what book is your favorite," Percy pointed to the book in my hand.

I bumped his shoulder, "That's like asking a parent to chose a favorite child,"

Percy laughed, "Every parent has a favorite child, whether you ask them about it or not,"

"I was not my Father's favorite child, he hardly knew I existed, all attention on Bobby and Mathew," I didn't mean to sound so depressed,

Percy stopped us, "Hey, no pity party today. I was my Mom's favorite and only child,"

"You were a momma's boy weren't you," I shook off my sadness,

Percy smiled sheepishly, "Guilty as charged,"

I whistled, "Dude, I would never expected you to be a momma's boy,"

"Shut up," He tugged my hair over my face,

I opened my mouth, only for the lunch bell to toll, "Where's your object?" I asked him, looking at his empty hands,

"Head towards the dinning hall, I'll meet you on the deck," Percy kissed my forehead before sprinting off, after he disappeared from sight, I cautiously walked towards the Dinning hall. I wait for 5 minutes but Percy never showed up. I was the last to sit down,

"Excuse me, Miss Chase, where is Mr. Jackson?" Worry was etched in her face,

I felt my face flush as I scrambled around to make up a lie, "He's going to the restroom, he''ll be right back." I almost cringed at the fakeness of my lie.

Surprisingly, the Lady seemed to have bought it, but everyone else just looked at me expectedly-like they were gonna get the truth when the Lady was in the room.

"I'm here!" Percy called, stepping into the room.

I felt everyone's wonder at the object in his hands,
